§ 118-1. Purpose.  


Latest version.
  • The purpose of this code is to provide the minimum control of signs necessary to promote the health, safety, and general welfare by lessening hazards to pedestrians and vehicular traffic, by preserving property values, by preventing unsightly and detrimental development that would detract from the appeal of the community and lead to economic decline and blight, by preventing signs from reaching such excessive size or numbers that that they obscure one another to the detriment of all concerned, by securing certain fundamentals of design that would strengthen the community's economic base, and by preserving the right of free speech.
